David Bain freedom fighter Joe
Karam predicts his man will walk free in the next few months--"and the
whole nick's backing him!" "Nearly everyone believes
he's innocent--Paparua Prison wardens and staff," says Karam. "Other
inmates give him preferential treatment." But the cops who nabbed Bain don't
really know anything about him, says Karam. Only junior officers interviewed
Bain, he claims. Karam hopes the case, which he
alleges is full of incompetence by the cops, will soon come to an end. "Our petition is with the
Governor General. It's being investigated thoroughly and I am confident David
will be freed. It's a shame the process takes such a long time," says
Karam. Peter Ellis also has a petition
before the Governor General and David Dougherty got off on one last year. These are all very different cases
but have one common thread, says Karam--police bungling. "They can never see they made
a mistake. They fight to the bitter end--just look at the Arthur Allen Thomas
case." |
